Outside of a multitude of challenges faced in the workplace, these employees have filed over 900 grievances to date on being forced to work full 8 and 10-hour shifts without taking all the breaks they are entitled to. How are they supposed to do their job without being able to properly recharge and refresh themselves?

The Initiative

Our safety is in the hands of Airport pre-board screeners. They are not just confiscating liquids and random personal items. They are trained extensively to make sure that we are safe when we fly, and it is something that the general public doesn’t always think about. Calgary and Edmonton have two of the busiest airports in Canada, and screening officers deal with keeping thousands of people safe every single day. They deserve to be treated with respect in the workplace.

But that hasn’t been the case.

These employees have filed over 900 grievances to date and have been forced to work full 8 and 10-hour shifts without taking all the breaks they are entitled to. How are they supposed to do their job without being able to properly recharge and refresh themselves?

You can make a difference. By sharing our initiative and reaching out to people who can help change their situation, you can make sure they are no longer treated this way.
